Cost-effective research solution

Maximize your research budget without compromising on data quality. STRYDE’s seismic systems are engineered to provide high-resolution seismic data at a fraction of the cost of other nodal systems or cabled seismographs.

Staff member at Rice University

"This survey was the highest in density and channel count ever conducted by our team. Achieving our desired trace density within our time and labour constraints would not have been possible without STRYDE's agile nodes.

The lightweight nature of these nodes marked a significant advancement for us, allowing for high-density deployments on foot, even in rough terrain.

Our team was thoroughly impressed with the STRYDE system, particularly valuing the integrated node deployment backpack, navigation tablet, GPS unit, and node initialisation device, which greatly enhanced the efficiency and effectiveness of our deployment process."

Use cases

A small snippet of the applications where STRYDE has been used to advance research:

Geothermal energy

Geothermal energy

Upgrading equipment from bulky nodal devices to STRYDE's autonomous nodes has enabled researchers to conduct high-density reflective, microseismic , and passive seismology studies for geothermal exploration, and well monitoring.

Critical zone studies

Critical zone studies

Ranging from time-lapse imaging for measurement of seismic velocity changes associated with soil moisture changes, to examining the influence of the largest trees on Earth on subsurface bedrock weathering, STRYDE has been deployed on a diverse range of critical zone studies.

Seismic risk

Seismic risk

From monitoring and predicting landslides to forecasting volcanic activity and assessing subsurface suitability for high-rise construction, STRYDE's technology has played a pivotal role in delivering critical insights that safeguard lives and protect our planet.

Natural hydrogen

Natural hydrogen

Proven to deliver high-resolution geophysical data for generating detailed geological models, enabling the exploration and understanding of natural hydrogen in the subsurface—a previously challenging task now made possible through dense seismic acquisition using STRYDE, in any terrain.
